What is angle of Depression?

The angle formed by the line of sight and the horizontal plane for an object below the horizontal.

Given:

angle of depression= 28 degree,

distance between car and building= 50m

using trigonometry,

tan 28= P/B

0.5317= P/50

P= 26.585 m

Hence, the height of the building is 26.585 m.
